Steeple Ashton was one of the most important 'wool-towns' of the middle ages and from this time remain the exceptionally large Church of St Mary and many of the old buildings of the Village. We have often won the 'Best Kept Village Competition'. There are many footpaths around the Village where you may be greeted by a cheery 'good morning' or 'good afternoon' by the locals. There is a village bus service to Trowbridge, Devizes and Bath. The Village has a 'lockup' on the Village Green, used in the past to hold drunks whilst the Policeman was summoned, on his bicycle, from Trowbridge! Today, the 'lockup' houses the Village Green lawnmower. Steeple Ashton has a Village Shop, about three minutes walking distance from Jasmine Cottage, specialising in local produce. It is also the Village Café and Post Office, You will be made most welcome there by the locals. Steeple Ashton is ideally placed as a base to visit many of the prehistoric sites of Wiltshire including the world famous Stonehenge, Avebury Stone Circle, Silbury Hill, The Wandsdyke, Kennet Longbarrow and the many White Horses of the County (The nearest one is at Westbury, a ten minute drive away). Easily accessible are the ancient and historic cities of Salisbury and Bath, Stourhead Gardens, the 'biscuit-tin' village of Castle Coombe, the National Trust village of Laycock, Westonbirt Arboretum, Bradford on Avon, Bowood House, Great Chalfield Manor, Longleat House with its Maze and Safari Park and much, much more...
